Mozartian lightness and wit, dark beauty from Berg and melodious angst from Schubert: the Tetzlaff show us three very different sides of the Viennese string quartet

Paarvo Järvi and the NHK Symphony give a riveting account of Schumann and Schubert.

The ever consummate conductor delivers a trio of stylistically contrasting works by Haydn, Beethoven and Nielsen with a single trait in common: obdurate perfectionism.

Passion and intensity in a recital of Brahms' chamber music in Lucerne.

The second concert of the Philharmonia’s Brahms cycle saw Brahms’ orchestra at its richest and most full-blooded. Alongside the burnished, glowing colours of the Haydn Variations were placed the autumnal glow of the Third Symphony and the Concerto for Violin and Cello, Brahms’ final orchestral work, with sibling soloists Christian and Tanja Tetzlaff.
